Udało się :) Po kilku zmarnowanych arkuszach wreszcie ukończyłem mapę bez kleksów. Oznacza to, że nowa pracownia jest wreszcie dobrze urządzona.

Arkusz B2. Tusze i akwarele.

Teraz trzeba to jeszcze zeskanować i opisać.

Mercator keeps every shape true and pays for it in area: land at 82° north is drawn 51 times too big. At the same total area as Equal Earth, its poles balloon while Africa, South America and India shrink.

Every light here is a real navigational beacon on the coast of Brazil, blinking its charted character. What stands out: the lights do not stop at the sea. They run up the Amazon to Manaus, a thousand km inland.

"There's all sorts of choices and decisions that cartographers are making that gently steer us in one direction or another. And that's what makes them so powerful."

Every light here is a real navigational light on the coasts of Mexico, blinking the pattern the Mexican Navy publishes for it. Two seas lit: the Pacific from Baja California to Chiapas, the Gulf of Mexico round the Yucatán to the Caribbean.

In 990, France was a strip of land around Paris. Everything else was acquired.

San Francisco Bay: two landscapes in one reel.

First, the bay and ridges as layered paper terrain.
Then population rises as density stacks (1,000 to 8,000 people/km²).

No narration, just motion and this new bed.

Every navigational light on the Danish coast, blinking the character it's charted to keep, from the Skaw down to Bornholm in the Baltic. Rotating optics sweep, quick-flash lights blink, red and green glows mark the danger.

No two lights you can see at once flash alike. In the dark a ship sees only the lights, not the coast, so each one's rhythm is how it tells them apart. Every glow here is a real navigational light on its real cycle.
